Finding out he took Russian money is unsurprising.
A man who hates the FBI is going to run the FBI.
Fox, hen house. Hens, fox. Enjoy!
Huh, so that’s why it’s called fox news.
Why isn’t some rich person or PAC running tv and radio ads with info like this?
Just keep it simple. Black screen, large white type and voiceover “Kash Patel Took $25,000 From Russia-Linked Firm.”
Run it on streaming. Run it on prime time. Run it during the Super Bowl. Rub it in the faces of people who voted for this shit.
Because the little money the DCCC has is going to primary progressives like Cori Bush.
That, or just fucking bribe them back.
$25,000?
Our democracy is getting held hostage to a guy whose price is $25,000?
Fuck it, man, give each of them a billion. The US can do that out of petty cash. Say “Look, you misshapen-suit-wearing motherfucker. We already know you are for sale. So we’re giving you a billion dollars, on a pallet, in cash, so now you don’t need to worry about needing to fulfill your obligations to ‘whoever it is.’ (Make the finger quotes) We already know you have no loyalty, so you should be fine. But this is not an offer. I’m letting you know that you’re getting a billion dollars from Uncle Sam, in exchange for working on his behalf for a few years, and we’re going to have the CIA watching you to make sure you hold up the bargain. We already know that you (laundry list of heinous shit that he thought was kept secret by his dogshit OPSEC). We don’t care. We just want you to work for our team. And if you don’t want that, or you fuck around on it, then Rick here (a guy nearby, perfectly clean-shaven with thick glasses and a nerdy haircut but generally fit and with no expression at all on his face, looks dead in the eye at Patel for a second, flashes a big humorless grin, and then drops it like turning off a switch) will come and meet you sometime when you’re not expecting him. Get the idea?”
I can see a few flaws. But it seems like a better idea than just letting the motherfucker tool around spying for Russia and doing nothing about it.
Or, like maybe, prison.
Traitor. Just like his boss.

The Russians are killing it as far as mass influence campaigns to undermine Western democracy.
Trump, Boris Johnson, Justin Trudeau resigning, Brexit, Le Pen, AfD, Macron. I have very little in the way of evidence, but I absolutely know that there are clear signs of the Russians being involved in some of that, and to me the pattern that anything liberal and anti-Russian is having its democracy beset by sudden massive crises exactly as if you would suspect if someone was working hard at exploiting its preexisting fault lines and trying to tear it apart, is hard to miss.
